Program Overview
How does human behaviour affect our environment? What pressures do we face in managing scarce resources? Can technological innovation offer solutions? You will develop an understanding of the ecological and social crises of the 21st century while developing the practical skills that you need to bring about change.

You will explore the relationships between people, place and environment with staff who are active in the field.
